We’ve heard from the community that congestion frequently occurs along Kepa Road because vehicles park on both sides of the road and block the road, especially for larger vehicles like emergency service vehicles and buses. We’re proposing broken yellow lines to prevent parked vehicles from causing congestion. The proposed shifting of the centre line will also widen the traffic lane and make it easier for drivers to travel down Kepa Road.
What happens next
- We’ll consider all the feedback we receive, and then decide the best way to move forward.
- We’ll post the outcome of this proposal and a summary of community feedback on this webpage.
- We can email you the proposal outcome as soon as it’s ready – just select that option when you fill in the survey.
